Whether you are a landlord or a tenant in a commercial or retail shop lease, we can assist you with any leasing dispute. Our firm has experience in large and complex commercial leasing disputes involving large shopping centre chains and large ASX listed commercial real estate companies.

We negotiate on behalf of the landlord or tenant in respect of these large and complex leasing disputes. In particular, our firm has experience in large and complex retail shop leasing disputes arising from representations over foot-traffic, guaranteed occupancy, advertising and marketing and general trade practices disputes.

We have obtained remarkable outcomes for our clients allowing them to have certainty as to the costs of operating their businesses and their overheads, including obtaining favourable results for directors and other parties that have provided personal guarantees on a signed lease.

We also act for landlords in recovering unpaid rental monies, outgoings and damages from tenants and guarantors for the life of the lease.

Recently, our firm has been instrumental in securing rent reductions and other incentives for clients affected by the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. We have successfully assisted many clients to navigate through the Federal Government’s legislative changes regarding leases, meaning our clients have been able to continue to trade despite the economic impacts of the pandemic.
